A Benin-based pressure group, God and Peoples Parliament, on Wednesday, said that the regional government would curb terrorism, banditry, kidnapping and all kinds of destruction to human life.

Convener of the group, Dr Dele Oluwatade, while addressing journalists in Benin, Edo State capital, said the regional government would work if the terms and conditions applied.

“Every system on earth has terms and conditions. They should give us a politically sound regional government, not a federation of states but a federation of regions.

“The regional government would end years of Nigerians languishing under the yoke of terrorism, banditry, kidnapping and all kinds of destruction to human life.

“The states may be the active labour force that will generate the taxes to run the economy, the unit of production, but not the unit of regional federation relationship.
